At
last month's Super Soap Weekend in Orlando, FL, AMC's Thorsten Kaye
(Zach)
cracked, "Let's not go overboard," when a fan suggested his longtime
partner,
Susan Haskell (Marty, OLTL) is as popular as he is.

Haskell
says
it's all in good fun. "I don't think people realize how funny
he
is. He's always like that!" she laughed. "And in
those talk
shows, you're not going to get a straight answer."

As for how the family's faring since both parents of daughters
McKenna
and Marlowe are now gainfully employed, Kaye reported, "We're working
it
out. It takes a little time to figure out what we need to do, but I
think
we can do it."

Since they're often on different scheduleds, the couple rarely
has the
opportunity to carpool, but Haskell has something from her sweetie to
pass
the time in traffic. "Thorsten sets me up with some great
stuff on
the iPod."
